Finally going Orange

I reckon the next KTM deal will be on the 1290 Adv ..

They have done the GT before and as it is now getting such brilliant reviews and they have it well sorted .....


Ill be fucking gutted if they do

They’re already doing deals on the Adventure ;)

There will be GT deals later in the year :augie
 
I think the lads at Redline can do that

My mate with the SDR has been using them for many many years now and even buys his bikes from them despite them being very honest about not being competitive with Premier on price

I am in effect a known person to them so I will use them unless they piss me off then ill move elsewhere I am just so against using SMC who really look like a bunch of clowns despite being only 20 miles away

My nearest KTM dealer is circa 20 miles away, but their reputation is so poor there was no way I would entrust them with my bike; hence why I took a 200 mile round trip to Jim Aim in Essex...and their service was 1st class :D
 
I feel some education is needed here.

You are about to become the owner of a ‘proper’ motorbike. Your teeth are now cut and two wheeled nirvana is just around the corner.

As you are about to be, at last, a cool biker one just does not use the ‘T’ word.

Going on tour, or a tour, iis for wankers.

Once you own an Orange bike such fripperies will be beneath you :)

Wise words. There is much to learn when one "crosses over to the orange side" ;)
 
I’ve just realised that Rick has gone for the slower black version

Oh dear.
 
Rick, was there any reason you didn’t use Craig’s in Barnsley, they have or had 2018 GT in stock

TBH I didn't consider them as i wanted the 2019 bike

Premier are tough to beat on deals though and it had to be someone who would give proper money for my Ducati and many smaller places just dont want to know on such a specialised and rare bike

Oh dear.

It's got an orange frame though, and that's what's important ;)
 
I’ll be keeping an eye open for early Xmas presents from KTM and if they do a decent deal on a new 1290 SAS around then it’ll be time to move my GT on.

I’ll be away on my normal summer jolly in early July then if things go quiet I might sneak a fortnight away on my own in early September if the weather looks nice.

Enjoy the bike Rick, they make a belting tourer that can also be ragged rotten once you get to a few mountain passes.

You might be onto a winner seeing as they have not finished selling the 2018 bikes yet!

Long may the situation continue.

I’m not sure how much they’ll take the piss on the trade in value of my GT given that it was massively discounted when I bought it but it’s all about cost to change and if they can keep that between £3.5 and 4k then I’ll be happy.

The only reason it’s a *our is he wants me along with the twat Nav to get him there and back.
